About this event

Bring your trail bike and be one of the 50 to register for the history-themed Chasing George All Around ride on Sunday May 19, featuring talks from historical societies in Lawrence, Washington Crossing (PA) and Princeton.

This free, almost-40-mile ride is open to the public, so invite your friends and family who want to have a relaxed and interesting day biking! Ridership is capped at 50, so you must register for free at http://www.princetonfreewheelers.com/ . Go to the Ride Calendar for May 19 and click into the ride from the calendar to register.

We'll meet at the parking lot on the side of REI in Mercer Mall at 8am (restrooms will be open at the store). The ride will leave promptly at 8:15am, and follow the D&R Canal Path, the Lawrence Hopewell Trail, The Delaware Canal Path (PA) and part of the new Trenton Wellness Loop! Plan to be back at REI about 2pm.

Please bring a lunch to eat during the Washington Crossing talk, and donations are always appreciated by our local historical societies.

Besides the REI store, restrooms will be available at Lawrenceville Village Park, Mercer Meadows Park, Washington Crossing Historical Park (PA), Delaware Canal (PA) Park at the Calhoun Street Bridge to Trenton.
